Leo and Lex Young commit to Stanford

Hicks, Sprout, Robinson, Young (2x). Not sure how anyone is beating that.

Didn't these guys get the memo that the GOAT of all distance coaches just got hired at UCLA?

Even NAU

newbury park university goes home devastated

I wonder if Colin Sahlman and Nico will transfer there too

Stanford have 5 sub 13:40 guys who will still be there in 2023.
in addition to other sub 14:00 and incoming Bergen and Sherry twins…
it might require a sub 13:30 (or 13:25) to make the top 7

Impressed with the decision. Not just chasing a good team (although it’s an amazing team) but also looking towards their post running future. Maturity.

Now we wait to see where the top non Sahlmans and Youngs from NP go to.

Doshi (still got a bucket of time)

Cantu

Martinez

Makes one wonder.

Hence the reason I see Doshi go to UCLA instead. I doubt he will even be a top 10 high schooler even as a senior.

Summary of reasons for Doshi to go to UCLA:

- Good for academics

- Sean Brosnan

- Several class of 2025 guys are better than him like Smith, Recupero and Tostenson.

They will still find a way to lose to NAU in XC.

The biggest running couple to commit to Stanford since Ryan and Sara Hall??

I wonder how important for them was to stay with Nike?

Stanford makes NAU look like a small community college. With Stanford on your resume, your application gets a good look. NAU might get thrown in the shredder.

They might be going there just for the running program. Stember became Sushi chef and Ryan Hall, a body builder.

Add Gabe Jennings to that list

To include that last reel on their latest video, after the outro, was cool; as an eighth grader, Lex said “Watch out Stanford, here I come!”

what has UCLA produced outside of Peter Herold over the past couple of years? They had a gift horse in Ajani Salcido. I don't see any local athletes to UCLA making it big over the next few seasons.
